This is a book about Annie Bronn Johnston, or, Wild Horse Annie. One day, while driving to work, Mrs. Johnston noticed some horses being driven to a rendering plant to be made into dog food. They were wild horses who were captured cruelly and were not treated humanely. This is an excellent book about how Wild Horse Annie fought to save the mustangs. Must-read.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 068971601X, Paperback)

Horses were in Annie Bronn's blood. For as long as she could remember, she had been fascinated by the spirited wild mustangs that roamed free throughout the West. So when greedy cattlemen started to round up the mustangs for slaughter, Annie knew it was up to her to save the breed.

The true story of Wild Horse Annie's crusade to save the mustangs is inspiring. Readers will cheer her on, all the way to the White House, in her struggle to preserve these beautiful creatures from extinction.
